Here you can understand why Brazilians adore their best architect ever: Oscar Niemeyer. It looks as a spaceship, with different expositions inside, awesome views of the city and beaches, experiments going around by students and beautiful place.
This place was projected by the architect Oscar Niemeyer, the same that did Building of the UNO, the Brasilia City, the MAC in Niteroi, Univ. Constantine in Argel, etc. In this complex works small expositions. It has free parking.
Please note that Estação Ciências and Estação Cabo Branco is the same thing! If you stay at a hotel on Cabo Branco beach, it's a nice walk to this building along the beach. Just follow the road. There are no signs but you can't miss it. I only saw the first floor exhibition, and it was nothing special, but the buding itself is cool and if you travel with children, there are some stuff to play with outside in the garden.
A Estação Ciência de Cultura e Arte do Cabo Branco, além de uma bela obra de arquitetura do fantástico Oscar Neimeyer abriga com exposição permanente e por temporadas obras dos mais importantes artistas brasileiros.
Não posso dizer que tenha entrado lá, mas paramos o carro lá para tirar umas fotos. Projeto de Niemeyer, belo projeto arquitetônico, que chama atenção à vista. Quero conhecer na próxima visita a JP.
It is a "OK" place to go. It is the nearest point to the African continent in the South American continent. It's also called as "Cabo do Seixas" (in portuguese). It worths a visit of no more than 40 minutes.
We didn't have enough time to spend at this city. However, I could see that the city is full of historical and architectural places. Also beautiful beaches. Bad the day we were there was raining. I hope came back one day and explore in detail.
Uma ótima opção de passeio, fica próximo ao forte. Arquitetura muito bonite (Oscar Niemeyer). Vale a pena conferir!
Certainly a must visit for architects or for extreme design lovers, 15 to 20 minute walk from the beach it is situated on the upper plane of Cabo Branco overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, it's a good idea to get information from your hotel or on the net as to what is on show. Sometimes there are very good music performances, local art and talent.
A estação Cabo Branco - Ciência, Cultura e Artes, no Altiplano é um passeio muito bom, especialmente para aqueles que levam crianças e adolescentes, pois desperta neles o gosto pelas ciências.
